The seven- gymnast team was clearly the smallest around, but their efforts were good enough to earn them a tie for first place in the city's league with Hennin- ger. Four Corcoran gymnasts, Barb Hertkorn, Linda Warren, Valerie Gal- vin, and Joan Meikleham qualified for the city's meet at Henninger, where they proved who was champion. Linda Warren captured first place, while Barb Hertkorn took second, and Joan Mei- kleham placed fifth. The loss of the three Seniors will defin- itely effect next year's team, but the remaining gymnasts hold promising futures. Especially under the coaching of Carol Mooney and Janet Bluem, the Girls Gymnastics team should have a flippin good time. You need a steady foot to perform on the balance beam as Joan Meikleham displays. ii 6 cy: N . ,Eg S g 1 X, i Q it .i ., f, 5 1 s H fffffiiii 4. rf f A I ix front row: Coach Carol Mooney. 2nd row: Warren, Sandy Steele, Valerie Galvin.

SOMETHING NEW PRETTY GCOD TOC! This was the first year that a Girls' .T.V. Soccer program was allowed for Inter- scholastic competition in the City's League. The girls compiled a won-lost record of 4-5, and one tie. Throughout their commendable season, the girls worked hard and hustled, showing great potential for the Varsity team in the upcoming years. The new J.V. Soc- cer team provides an outlet of experi- enced and more talented soccer players for the Varsity team, improving an al- ready good program. Here's to more opportunity and better competition. Volle-yi! . I- F Girls pike League The Girls' Varsity Volleyball team fin- ished second in the league. Their over- all record was 13-7, and had a league record of 9-4. With a total of eight Se- niors holding star positions, Lilie Ann Giles was instrumental in many of the victories, as were the co-captains Chris Collins and Gail Cawley. The team played so well this season that they were invited to a tournament in the Mt. Markham lnvitationals and walked away with second place.
